Curse

I heard these content rumors from a friend, who read it somewhere, for GW:EN...

Possible Skills:
Pure was Li Ming
Hold Li Ming's ashes for # seconds. While you hold her ashes, conditions on you expire # faster. When you drop her ashes, all allies within earshot lose # conditions.

Golem Shrapnel
The golem is damaged by the explosion. Small shards splinter off, causing Bleeding for # seconds to all adjacent foes

And, I heard these are some of the places in GWEN:
Harpy Caverns, Charr Temple, Jelly Den, Destroyer's Hive, Yeti Cave, Wurm Tunnels, Spider Lair

And here's some possible Quest names:
Journey to Nornheim, Ancient Ruins, Heart of the Mountain, Freeing the Vanguard

Edit:
These neat sounding items, too
Charr Bauble, Charr chalice, Golden Charr Relic, Exquisite Charr Carvings

And this character named Murakai, a Necromancer.

2nd Edit:
These Skills names...
Possibly Mesmer: Misery Signet, Logic Bomb, Aneurysm, Wastrel's Feast
Necromancer: Masochism
Elementalist: Glyph of Immolation, Glyph of Swiftness
Monk: Patience is Virtue, Spotless Mind, Spotless Soul
and another Ritualist skill: Energitic Was Lee-Sa

Nice! I hope this is true cause the Pure was Li Ming sounds good

mazey vorstagg · May 09, 2007, 05:08 AM // 05:08

The Jelly Den? Unlikely
although the other stuff is plausible

sindex · May 09, 2007, 05:19 AM // 05:19

All I have to say is interesting, if true that is. I wonder if Golem Shrapnel is a type of enchantment skill like Death Nova not in it self a new minion.

Edit: These skills sound hilarious just in name only, Monk: Patience is Virtue and Mesmer: Logic Bomb.

Necromancer: Masochism and Mesmer: Aneurysm kind of sound a little too odd, even by GW standards.

Wurm Tunnels gets me interested since wurms are my favoruite creatures in the game

Seems like each type of creature gets their own home in GWEN :P

Yeah that makes me wonder if these caverns really do go under all of GW world itself, and not limited to the continent of Tyria. So it actually goes under Elona and Cantha continents. I know about the great earthquake, but does it show an outline of where you are in those other continents; if you don’t have the other campaigns. However they could show a subterranean maps of all three continents if need be, probably as an outline of them.

RSGashapon · May 09, 2007, 05:40 AM // 05:40

They probably do run all under Tyria (the world, not the continent), since the Dredge Moleneaux mentions tunnels linking the Shiverpeaks to Cantha, specifically to some as-yet-unseen location in the Echovald Forest.

On another note... Murakai... hm, female Canthan Necromancer perhaps? A contender to Eve perhaps? Oh I hope.

After the Asura, I think ANYTHING is possible.

Yeah, even a Blinky's Tome for a mesmer off-hand (don't ask).

LoL at Golem Shrapnel. Are we in world war 2 here? Shrapnel? that sounds kinda farce to me.

Need your sources first. "Your friend said so" doesn't cut it.

Also, here's an image that we couldn't identify as anywhere in the game... Can anyone here identify it?

can we have a source on this...?

Kale Ironfist · May 09, 2007, 09:03 AM // 09:03

Mr. Gs' post came from ATS beta testers finding new skills on the test servers. They were quickly documented and saved to several other places, as they did not have to sign an NDA to participate.

Or so people claim.

Lord Sojar · May 09, 2007, 09:14 AM // 09:14

Good lord..... Cure hex is OP if it is true.. umm, just NO.

I'm not saying you're lying...but the whole "I have a friend who heard from another friend who read somewhere about the Queen hearing that someone from ANet said..." sounds a tiny bit dodgy...

Etta · May 09, 2007, 09:35 AM // 09:35

A friend of a friend also told me about a new paragon's shout call "Shut the f@@k up!" all spells disable, any caster attemping to cast a spell while having the affect of this shout on them will be knock down for 5 sec.

Lydz · May 09, 2007, 10:30 AM // 10:30

Erm, all lame jokes aside. Who is this friend?
